We need to organize to get our guys elected as delegates.
1. When are state delegates elected
2. Does anyone have a list of when these state delegate elections are?
3.Is anyone here willing to be a state delegate?
We have to cover all our bases. We’ve got the inside lane but these crooks aren’t going to go down easy. If they think they can rig it then it’s up to us to make sure people are in those positions who are not controlled by them
You’re a day late & a dollar short. You had to be elected as a delegate at the precinct level around the time of your state’s primary. (Some states have caucuses instead of primaries.)
Delegate elections happen at multiple levels on multiple dates within a state. Generally, the first is at the precinct caucus, which is usually held the same night as the primary election but right after the polls close.
The delegates who were elected at the precincts then attend district caucuses at a later date, sometimes a couple of weeks or more. At the district caucuses, delegates are elected to attend the state caucus, which is at some later date.
The delegates to the state conventions then elect delegates to send to the national convention.
So, to steal a nomination, one has to begin at the precinct level. I know. I watched it happen in 2008 to Hillary Clinton when I participated in Operation Chaos. Obama stole the nomination from her that way.
It is too late in so many states, already.
TRUMP supporters already sat out their precinct meeting, their county convention, where they get selected to be delegates to their state convention, this summer.
TRUMP supporters in the states who have voted are already selected to their state convention.
It is at the State Convention they can try to be slated as a delegate to the National Convention, where all the trouble is going to be.
Precinct meetings are on the night of your respective state primary.
Next comes the County Convention, where you can volunteer to be a delegate to your State Convention, but first your County convention attendants vote for the slate of volunteers. There is an allocated number of County delegates who can go to the State Convention.
You have to volunteer early enough to beat the cut off number allocated. Or, you have to be an alternate delegate.
Next comes STATE Convention. You can volunteer to be a National delegate, and then an allocated number of volunteers are slated for representing your congressional district.
So where primaries have already occurred, and county conventions have been schedule and have occurred, it is too late.
State Primary Days are the turning point for developing the grassroots delegate slate.
Spending a few anonymous minutes in a voting booth a few times a decade is never going to result in restrained government, Trump or no.
The drawback of not being interested or involved in an ongoing basis in your own self-government is that when you see a critical situation, it’s too late. Someone else is going to get their way, a lot of times just by showing up. Fail to plan, plan to fail.
